## Description

Uploads multiple file to a selected folder. [See the documentation](https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-js/Dropbox.html#filesUpload__anchor)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `path` | `string` | Yes | The folder to upload to. Type the folder name to search for it in the user's Dropbox. Options are loaded from the connected account. |
| `filesPaths` | `string[]` | Yes | Provide an array of either file URLs or paths to a files in the /tmp directory (for example, /tmp/myFile.pdf). |
| `filenames` | `string[]` | Yes | An array of filenames for the new files. Please provide a name for each URL and/or Path. Make sure to include the file extensions. |
| `autorename` | `boolean` | No | If there's a conflict, have Dropbox try to autorename the file to avoid the conflict. |
| `mute` | `boolean` | No | Normally, users are made aware of any file modifications in their Dropbox account via notifications in the client software. If true, this will not result in a user notification. |
| `strictConflict` | `boolean` | No | Be more strict about how each WriteMode detects conflict. For example, always return a conflict error when mode = WriteMode.update and the given "rev" doesn't match the existing file's "rev", even if the existing file has been deleted. This also forces a conflict even when the target path refers to a file with identical contents. |
| `mode` | `string` | No | Selects what to do if the file already exists. |
| `syncDir` | `dir` | No | SyncDir |

## Run it

**MCP**

```ts
import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js"
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp.js"
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const accessToken = await pd.rawAccessToken

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "dropbox",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "dropbox-upload-multiple-files",
  arguments: {
    path: "Path",
    filesPaths: ["File Paths or URLs"],
  },
})
```
